Supernatural
Now the birth of Jesus Christ was as follows: After His mother Mary was betrothed to Joseph, before they came together, she was found with child of the Holy Spirit.
Matthew 1:18
God's ways are not man's ways. We think and act and believe in human ways. We expect answers to our prayers the way we think it will be.
But God's way of answering prayers is beyond our comprehension.
Mary was conceived without knowing a man. It was by the Holy Spirit's power.
Yes, God performs miracles through the power of the Holy Spirit.
There is nothing He cannot do.
But in order for the power of the Holy Spirit to be manifested, one must believe.
Jesus said in Mark 9:23 — All things are possible for those who believe.
Mary believed what the angel said, and she was able to conceive the Son of God. The greatest miracle ever.
Supernatural meets natural through faith.
Jesus said — Just believe, and you will see the glory of God (John 11:40).
So, exercise faith every day. Faith comes by hearing and hearing the Word of the Living God (Romans 10:17).
It is an everyday practice and not a one-time task. Make it a habit to believe God's supernatural even for small things and you will be able to see greater things.
Reflection:
What is preventing you from believing the supernatural? Are you fixing your eyes on the natural? Practice waiting on God for your needs rather than taking matters in your hands. Allow God to intervene. Do not be tempted to do things on your own. Surrender to Him and you will see the supernatural.
Prayer:
Father, strengthen Your faith You have given me. Help me to fix my eyes on You and wait on You. Give me the patience and endurance. Forgive me for not allowing You to do the supernatural in my life. I surrender to Your will and plan. Please take full control over my life, situations and circumstances. May I see Your wondrous work in my life and may Your name be glorified in my life. In Jesus' name I pray, Amen.
